Simply because of Larry Craig 
's bathroom homosexual scandal.
A GOP source said confidentially that Idaho Republican Senator Larry Craig is expected to resign as early as today.
The GOP was considering calling on Sen. Craig for his resignation, but a GOP source says the Republican Party is holding off on its decision and giving Craig a chance to quit.
Craig is faced with an ethics probe by the Senate Ethics Committee after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor charge in Minneapolis stemming from an incident in a Minneapolis airport restroom where an undercover police officer arrested the Idaho Senator for lewd behavior, though Craig pled guilty to a lesser charge of disorderly conduct that he has since said he regrets.
Craig, 62, pleaded to a misdemeanor disorderly conduct charge and was fined $1000 and sentenced to ten days in the Hennepin County lockup (though the jail time was stayed as long as the politician keeps clean for a year).
Sen. Craig has faced national media pressure over his alleged homosexual actions with several newspapers reporting of prior incidents in which Craig supposedly had sexual encounters with other men, though none have been substantiated.
